Reviews
Excellent but underrated film
Absolutely the worst movie.
It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
